There's just something special and classy about white on white. I love the look over layered whites, some embossed, some not. I think the simplicity of this card, and the layers just add to its special-ness (lol).

I have a Thinking of You card today for Sweet Stamps. Funny how the events in your life (or of those around you) influence the kinds of cards you make. My boyfriend's family is saying a final good bye to a loved one this week, and this will be the card I send to his mother.

This stamp was perfect for this kind of card. It is detailed enough to not have to do anything else with it, and not too detailed that it all melted together. I really like how this card turned out, and I know the family will appreciate it as well.

You can find all of the linked products in the Sweet Stamps online store. Come and join in the two monthly challenges for a chance to win some prizes...you know you want to! See you soon!

I have created a clean and simple card for you today for Sweet Stamps. Remember the shaker card I showed you last week? Well with this week's card, I used the negatives from the die cut flowers to create more flowers!

Hello everyone! I have been asked to Guest Design for the Paper Girls Challenge this month, and I am honored :)

This first challenge theme is "The Great Outdoors":

I created this card with the Altenew stamp set called "Persian Motifs". I stamped the image on hot press water color paper with Versamark ink and then heat embossed it with clear embossing powder. Then I painted the flowers using my Inktense pencils.

The sentiment is from Tim Holtz Just Sayings stamp set, and I added some sequins from my stash.

I enjoy coloring or painting flowers, and to be able to do it with water color makes it even better!\

I'll see you again in two weeks for another Guest Design project for Paper Girls Challenge! Until then, Happy Crafting!

She is so cute, and such fun to color. I created this card using a Stampin' Up sentiment stamp (I have no idea if it's retired or not lol), as well as paper from the Studio Calico Atlantic collection, and some ribbon and embellishments from my stash.

I colored her using my Copics and Prismacolor Premiere pencils in the following colors:
